EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, a group of Iraqi Kurdish people can be seen carrying fire torches up a majestic mountain. The mountain serves as the backdrop for a giant flag of Iraq's autonomous Kurdistan region, beautifully laid out on its peak. This awe-inspiring scene takes place during Newroz Day, an important festival that symbolizes both spring and the new year for the Kurdish community. The image captures the essence of celebration and patriotism as these individuals make their way up the path towards the flag. Their unrecognizable figures create an atmosphere of unity and togetherness, with each torch illuminating their journey against the serene night sky. The creative use of flame adds an atmospheric touch to this traditional event. Newroz Day is not only celebrated by Iraqi Kurds but also in other countries such as Turkey, Azerbaijan, Iran, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan. This photograph showcases how cultural traditions transcend borders and bring people together in joyous festivities. Azad Lashkari's composition highlights nature's grandeur by juxtaposing it with human presence. The giant-sized flag flutters proudly atop the mountain peak while emphasizing both national pride and reverence for nature's beauty. This powerful image invites viewers to appreciate not only the rich heritage of Iraqi Kurds but also their resilience in celebrating amidst challenging times. It serves as a reminder that traditions have the power to unite communities even in tumultuous circumstances.
